    "Are you leaving tomorrow?" After reading the official documents from the Intelligence Department, Hong Yun'er gently picked up the ink pen and drew a few strokes on a pamphlet. With these strokes, she crossed out a name on the pamphlet.  , the booklet was full of names that had been crossed out, but the red marks left by the bright red pen on each name were so shocking.

    Xiao Yungui did not raise his head. He was looking down at the official document. After hearing Hong Yun'er's words, he just hummed softly.

    Hong Yun'er closed the booklet and sighed softly: "I suddenly felt that we are too cold-blooded and despicable? Each of these names represents the rise and fall of a big family, I don't know.  How many people will have their lives changed because of this.¡±

    Only then did Xiao Yungui raise his head and said with a faint smile: "Will there be a change without bloodshed? Our country is extremely ill. How can we cure it without strong medicine? If we use strong medicine, blood will naturally bleed. Since ancient times, those who share the same desire will win.  I want the military and civilians of our province to work in the same direction. At this time, what I want is order and one voice. Too much noise will be bad."

    Hong Yun'er was silent for a while and said: "Agui, have you ever thought that there would be a day when one word could determine life or death?"

    Xiao Yungui answered simply: "No, but since fate has arranged for us to be like this, I will try my best to do a good job."

    Hong Yuner lowered her head and sighed softly: "It turns out that we have changed. Unknowingly, we changed from just wanting to save our lives to deciding whether to live or die."

    Xiao Yungui asked strangely: "Why are you so sentimental tonight? When we asked Bai Zetang and the Intelligence Department to get rid of these people, you were also very in favor of it."

    Hong Yun'er was silent again for a while, and then said: "Let's not talk about this anymore. You are going to Shanghai tomorrow, but our first admission to the West Hall is coming soon, so can't you stay a few more days?"

    Xiao Yungui stood up and walked around for a few steps: "In a few days, the reorganization of the first batch of veterans will begin. These veterans came all the way from Changsha with us. I am going to take charge and stabilize the morale of the army." At this point, he paused.  After a pause, he said: "This course is specially opened by our Western Palace to select Su Fu officials. It is not like Tianjing where the King of Heaven and the King of the East have to hand-pick the number one scholar. It is enough that the Zuo Xiang and you are here."

    Hong Yun'er smiled sweetly and said: "I have participated in too many political affairs, and there are rumors about Si Chen outside. Aren't you, the King of the West, afraid of being teased and relying on your wife?"

    Xiao Yungui chuckled twice and said: "If you let someone as useful as you go, my brain will be pinched by the door." After saying that, he walked to Hong Yun'er and gently pulled Hong Yun'er's jade hand.  : "I need to worry more about education and talents. Ignore the old gossip. Who in the West Prince's Palace doesn't treat you as half of the Prince of the West?"

    It was already midsummer. Hong Yun'er was wearing a silk women's Hanfu with a deep skirt and a deep skirt. The silk was thin and soft, with a very low neckline. Xiao Yungui stood beside Hong Yun'er.  Taking advantage of his high position, he stared hard at the white undershirt exposed by Hong Yun'er's collar.

    Hong Yun'er didn't notice that the person next to her was changing into a pervert, and her jade hand gently touched Xiao Yungui's big hand.  He whispered in his mouth: "Don't worry. Tomorrow I will go to inspect several new schools in Suzhou. Scholars from all over the country are coming to take the exam. I will make arrangements You, your hands  what are you doing?"

    Xiao Yungui's big hands very dishonestly followed the slightly lower neckline of Quju Shenyi and penetrated into Hong Yun'er's chest. Xiao Yungui discovered that Hong Yun'er's delicate figure had changed since she changed into Hanfu.  It can even create a fatal temptation for him in Hanfu.  It¡¯s like watching those blockbuster films in kimono in later generations.

    Being caressed by the hot big hands, Hong Yun'er felt that half of her body had softened. She slowly leaned on the familiar and strong body, but her slightly panting voice was so seductive: "Hold me in.  "

    The sweltering heat of summer gives people reasons to go crazy.  Xiao Yungui will go to Shanghai for a few months this time. The couple seizes the time before the brief separation and enjoys the joy of life crazily, perfectly combining soul and desire.

    Early the next morning, Hong Yun'er said goodbye to Xiao Yungui at the dock. She turned around and looked at the horses brought by the female guards. Her pretty face couldn't help but blush. Last night was too crazy, and she felt uncomfortable riding a horse just now.  , and immediately ordered the female soldiers to find a sedan. After getting on the sedan, Hong Yun'er took dozens of personal guards and went to Suzhou's No. 1 government-run primary school.

    Suzhou Government-run No. 1 Primary School is located next to Suzhou Confucian Temple Fuxue. Suzhou Fuxue is a stalwart. It is adjacent to Wolong Street in the east, East Street in the west, Xinshi Road in the south, and Shuyuan Lane in the north. It covers an area of ??about 100,000 square meters, with the Fuxue School in the center.  The school covers an area of ??about 60,000 square meters, and the Confucian Temple covers an area of ??about 40,000 square meters.  In terms of area, it is the second largest Confucius Temple in the country after Qufu Confucius Temple.

    Suzhou Government-run No. 1 Primary School is a new school developed within the government school, after the capture of Suzhou last year, under the instruction of Xiao Yungui, the West Palace was led by the Ministry of Rites and Suzhou County Governor Xu Naizhao to build a new primary school here.  Because of the war, the students in the Confucian Temple School returned to their hometowns and fled, leaving less than a hundred students still in the school.

    These students were determined to co-exist and die with the Confucian Temple, because they listened to the Manchu propaganda. The Taiping Army banned Confucianism and would definitely burn down the Confucian Temple after the city was destroyed.  But to the surprise of these students, the Taiping Army did not destroy the Confucius Temple after breaking the city.  When a group of weak students stood guard at the entrance of the Confucian Temple with sticks, pairs of Taiping soldiers passing by did not even look at them.

    At that time, there was still a plague in the city. The Taiping Army sent their medical officer named Zheng Jiji to treat the students, and told them to wash their hands before meals and after going to the toilet, not to eat raw or cold food, and to drink boiled water.  water.

    After standing guard at the gate of the Confucian Temple for more than ten days, the students finally couldn't hold on any longer. Later, under the call of Xu Naizhao, the governor who had surrendered the Taiping Army, these students finally put down their sticks and continued studying.

    ¡°Subsequently, Mr. Xu Naizhao and the officials of the Taiping Army took over the Confucian Temple. They invited back the mountain chief of the Confucian Temple and the teachers so that the students could continue to study and learn.  But the Taiping Army unceremoniously divided Fu Xue into two. More than 150 of the more than 200 houses in Fu Xue were divided by the Taiping Army, and high walls were built in the courtyard.

    The students were very angry. They thought that the Taiping Army wanted to use the buildings of the Fuxue for other purposes, so they picked up sticks again.  It was a pity that their struggle did not last until dark, because Mr. Xu Naizhao hung the words "Suzhou No. 1 Government-run Primary School" in his own handwriting on the door of the newly opened school.

    After Xu Naizhao¡¯s explanation.  The students understood that the Taiping Army was going to open a new school.  Since schools and colleges are still open, it is hard for the students to continue to cause trouble in an insulting manner, let alone a new school presided over by Mr. Xu Naizhao himself?  So the students went back again.

    But students are curious about what the elementary school next door teaches?  Without telling the teacher, they set up a long ladder on the courtyard wall to peek over the wall. This was unbecoming of etiquette and of course they had to be done secretly.

    The students enrolled on the other side of the courtyard wall are all children, the oldest are only eleven or twelve years old. In addition to classrooms, examination halls and traditional school buildings, the elementary school also has a playground and a library.  Every morning, afternoon, and evening, those primary school students would run and do exercises on the playground.  I heard that this was the morning exercise and physical education class that the fake King of the West specially participated in.  It is said that studying is not only about studying but also exercising well. It is also said that the body is the capital of studying and serving the country.

    There are many subjects offered in primary schools, including Sinology, which is a subset of classics and history, but I heard that I studied Sinology before the Ming Dynasty.  There are also arithmetic, inquiry, nature, foreign literature, etc.  What students despise the most are the other subjects. Mathematics and foreign literature are taught by comprador Chinese professors from foreign companies.  The subjects of Gewu and Zizi were taught by foreigners.

    Students used to curse.  A large banner was once erected on the wall of the courtyard: "I am ashamed to associate with barbarian learning."  The neighbor also replied: "I am ashamed to associate with the frog at the bottom of the well."  So the two sides began a long-term silent exchange of words. From the initial sarcastic insults, they later began to debate and ask questions to each other.

    After several months of fierce fighting, the students gradually became unable to do what they expected, because the other party could easily answer the questions they asked about the classics and history subsets, while the other party could not answer the questions for them.  But there is no answer here.

    And the way of communicating with each other has also changed from the original cloth strips to two huge wooden boards with eye-catching big-character posters on them, with questions to ask each other and answers to each other.

    What also makes the students unhappy is that the next door does not stop at night.  The Taiping Army set up a night school next door, including accelerated courses in literacy, accelerated courses in skills, and tutoring classes for officials.  I heard that the skills crash course was actually taught by low-level craftsmen, from masons to carpenters, from blacksmiths to bamboo fence workers, all kinds of people.  Moreover, according to the unique seven-day week of the Taiping Army, classes were divided into classes on March 1st, May 1st, and May 2nd, and which classes started on Tuesday, April, and Saturday.  In short, the noise next door makes the students unable to concentrate on studying at night. Only when the official training class starts, it is slightly better. These people are always officials and know what meditation is.

    Hong Yun'er got off the sedan chair and walked into the gate of the primary school. The principal of the primary school, Wang Jingde, and several teachers came quickly to greet her.  Wang Jingde was originally a teacher. Later, when Shanghai opened as a port, he became a comprador in a foreign company to make a living.  After Shanghai was captured by the Taiping Army, the Taiping Army hired high-tech teachers everywhere. Wang Jingde quit his job at a foreign company and went to Suzhou to teach. In fact, he was not willing to work under foreigners.  The King of the West appreciated that he was knowledgeable about Western learning, not pedantic, and had good knowledge, so he became the first principal of this first elementary school.

    Wang Jingde has never seen a "rebel" who cares so much about education. Xi Wang's investment in primary schools can be described as generous. Basically, he gives you what you ask for. SomeEven the King of the West gave it to you, which you didn¡¯t expect.  Since the completion of the primary school, Xi Wang and Xi Wang Niang have taken the time to inspect it several times almost every month, and Xi Wang Niang has also compiled new teaching materials.

    "There is no need to be polite, Principal Wang. What question did you ask the neighbor today?" Hong Yun'er interrupted Wang Jingde's salute with a smile. Wang Jingde hurriedly replied: "Today's question is about natural science. It asks how to know how the four seasons change.  Come."

    Hong Yun'er smiled and said: "This question is good, but they can't answer it either."

    Wang Jingde said: "That's right, there are a few more students from next door who have come to listen recently. It can be seen that the students next door still have an inquiring heart."

    Hong Yun'er hummed, then raised her legs and walked a few steps. Suddenly she felt dizzy, her breath was short of breath, and waves of nausea rushed into her heart. Then her feet went soft and she fainted (To be continued, please continue.  Search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
